Diploma & Advanced Diploma in Resort Management



Programme Introduction

An Integrated Resort (IR) is a euphemism for mixed-use developments with a casino in Singapore. During a parliament session on 18 April 2005, Lee Hsien Loong, the prime minister of Singapore, announced the cabinet's decision to develop two integrated resorts in Marina South and Sentosa. These are planned to be completed in 2009, and would be the first casinos in the country. ^

The Diploma program is designed to introduce students to the business world in general with relation to the hospitality and resort industry. As a student, you will have good overview of the industry and have sound business foundation skills. Knowledge gain will prepare students for entry level positions in the industry.

The Advanced Diploma program further develops students in their understanding of the business in relation to the hospitality and resort industry. As a student, you will gain better overview of the industry and have sound resort specialization skills such as event management and service standards in the resort industry. Knowledge provided by this course will better groom students for entry level supervisory or management positions in the integrated resort and hospitality industry.
